Work's fine

Pros: Booted first time on Asus P6T with i7 920. I had to adjust the memory's speed manually in the bios but i'm sure the lower speeds are to help compatability with a wider range of motherboards. The X.M.P. setting is helpfull when setting this memory at full speed (1600Mhz O/C) and it runs fine at the rated 1600Mhz.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: I wanted some OCZ platinum @1600Mhz but everywhere was sold out and I was not prepared to wait for restock, so i went with the XMS3 and so far i'm quite pleased with my purchase.
Not impressed

Pros: very attractive 2lb paper weight!
Cons: Only 4 of the usb's on the whole board work and they have latency issues. It fried a SSD and a HDD in the first week of ownership, I RMA'ed the SSD.. The board is very unstable and crashes all the time plus impossible to OC. Just a small OC results in a "no post" loop and I had to fix it via the second bios. I obviously got a lemon but no chance of any lemonade! After getting my SSD back I finally gave up and called Newegg. They can't refund or replace because the box has no UPC code because I sent it in for a rebate. I am left dealing with MSI which isn't great and who knows when I'll have a working computer again.
Overall Review: Just a word of warning, newegg warranty is up once you mail in your rebate.................that is just bad in my honest opinion. I've been a long time customer and never RMA'ed anything, now I'm left with a $350 red and black paperweight. I'll be shopping elsewhere in the future.
Great mousepad

Pros: 1. Perfect size, not too big or small 2. Comfy wrist rest 3. Stays put, doesn't slip or move 4. 2 sided for precision or speed 5. Nicely finished, looks good 6. Works perfect with Logitech G700
Cons: I don't see any cons with this product. I paid $30 for a mouse pad and I got $30 worth of mouse pad!
Overall Review: I have read some of the other reviews about this product being flimsy and not worth the money. I strongly disagree with those statements, it's a mouse pad that is designed to have a 100g-150g device slide across it. You are not suppose to run over it with your chair, maybe we should all knock the i-7 chip or the latest Nvidia GTX580 graphics cards because I'm sure if I run my computer chair over them it would cause some damage............shame on these companies for not making their products chair proof! All joking aside, this mouse pad is fantastic and has improved my gaming precision from the get go. I would buy one if it was $60.

Pros: Lots of power and lots of cables. Nice finish and very stable voltage. No noise coming from fan.
Cons: It's biggggggg, but i managed to fit her in.
Overall Review: It powers my i7 920 @3.8Ghz, Asus P6T, SLI Evga GTX260's, 3x2gigs ram, 4 HDDs, 2 dvd combo drives, X-fi with front panel, 10x120mm fans and a fan controller (i have the Thermaltake Mozart case) and 2 water cooling loops. It does all this with very stable voltage.
Crazy overclocker

Pros: This thing is a beast. The jump from my Q6600 to the i7 was huge. I have this thing running at 3.5Ghz on the first try and on the stock cooler with temps 33 degrees idle and 58 load. I'm not sure how far this chip will overclock but 3.5Ghz with a small voltage jump (may not have even needed the extra voltage) on the Intel stock cooler is awesome. The Q6600 at 3.5Ghz on the stock cooler would have caused global warming!
Cons: None
Overall Review: Don't think about buying it, just click add to cart, it's a no brainer!
Very pleased so far

Pros: The board felt bullet proof when i removed it from the box, much more sturdy than my old 680i. You can tell it's made from quality materials. The system posted first time and hasn't had any issues since. If your thinking of getting a X58 board then look no further.
Cons: A CMOS switch would have been nice!!! clearing the CMOS is a pain because there are 2 other jumpers right above it. That's my only complaint.
Overall Review: This board is a breeze to overclock once you get use to the new jargon. I had my i7 920 @ 3.5Ghz on the stock cooler (33 degrees idle and 58 load) without even trying and after i finish writing this i'm gonna take it further. Once i get hold of a water block 1366 bracket I think 4-4.5Ghz will be within reach.
